10And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying: ²“Make two silver trumpets for yourself; you shall make them of hammered work; you shall use them for ^acalling the congregation and for directing the movement of the camps. ³When ^bthey blow both of them, all the congregation shall gather before you at the door of the tabernacle of meeting. ⁴But if they blow only one, then the leaders, the ^cheads of the divisions of Israel, shall gather to you. ⁵When you sound the ^dadvance, ^ethe camps that lie on the east side shall then begin their journey. ⁶When you sound the advance the second time, then the camps that lie ^fon the south side shall begin their journey; they shall sound the call for them to begin their journeys. ⁷And when the assembly is to be gathered together, ^gyou shall blow, but not ^hsound the advance. ⁸ⁱThe sons of Aaron, the priests, shall blow the trumpets; and these shall be to you as an ¹ordinance forever throughout your generations.

⁹^j“When you go to war in your land against the enemy who ^koppresses you, then you shall sound an alarm with the trumpets, and you will be ^lremembered before the Lord your God, and you will be saved from your enemies.
